Fiber, cable, and wireless data channels are typically impaired by reflectors and other imperfections, producing a channel state with echoes and frequency shifts in data waveforms. Here, methods of using OTFS pilot symbol waveform bursts to automatically produce a detailed 2D model of the channel state are presented. This 2D channel state can then be used to optimize data transmission. For wireless data channels, an even more detailed 2D model of channel state can be produced by using polarization and multiple antennas in the process. Once 2D channel states are known, the system turns imperfect data channels from a liability to an advantage by using channel imperfections to boost data transmission rates. The methods can be used to improve legacy data transmission modes in multiple types of media, and are particularly useful for producing new types of robust and high capacity wireless communications using non-legacy OTFS data transmission methods.

An intermediary system that seamlessly evolves the 2G / 2.5G storage mediums to the 3G entities (e.g., a logical HSS) and provides subscriber data to 3G services such as IMS, from legacy data sources. An Intermediary Query Manager (IQM) is provided that functions as intermediary / broker system, and supports defined standard 3GPP interfaces specific to the IMS system (utilizing the existing storage medium servicing the PS domain) and also allows the continued support of the 2G / 2.5G interfaces to 2G HLRs (servicing the CS domain). The IQM provides the capability to leverage usage of the current subscriber databases without requiring extraordinary efforts to migrate subscriber information to a new dedicated HSS element. The IQM provides data from multiple sources and processes requests necessary to fulfill these requests. The IQM can look like a MSC (Mobile Switching Center), VLR (Visitor Location Register), and / or SCP (Service Control Point) to the HLRs depending on the type of queries.

Various methods and systems provide interfaces between legacy data buses such as MIL-STD 1553 buses and wideband wireless data links such as links compatible with IEEE 802.11 or IEEE 802.16e. One technique for interfacing a legacy bus to a wideband wireless data communication link involves providing a hybrid bus controller / remote interface unit as an interface between the two data communication architectures. In operation, the legacy interface suitably receives data intended for a legacy node from a wireless radio module that is compatible with a designated broadband wireless data communication protocol. The legacy data is converted in the legacy interface / remote interface unit to at least one legacy word having a legacy format for transmission on the legacy data bus. The legacy interface may be further configured to receive a reply message from the legacy component on the legacy data bus, and to forward a reply to the wireless radio module in a format that is compatible with the designated wireless data communication protocol.

A universal gateway that allows data to be transferred between one or more network protocols and one or more control protocols is described. The various protocols can coexist on the same physical network medium or on separate networks. The gateway also provides tunneling of network protocols through a selected protocol, and centralized control of network nodes. By using the gateway, end-users can mesh together traditionally standalone, incompatible, networks into a universally accessible, centrally administered, “super-network.” The gateway provides a centralized node database, support for legacy protocols, a rules engine, and an object-oriented class library interface. Configuration is simplified through automatic device discovery. The centralized node database is managed by an active server node. High reliability access to the centralized node database is enhanced by the system fault tolerance provided by standby server nodes. When used in connection with a power line network, the gateway provides the ability to distribute various types of data streams over the power line. Routing handlers provided by the gateway allow virtually any of the legacy data networking services such as TCP / IP to be routed over the power-line.

The intermediate data element is converted to a target data element that may be accessed by the target application when executing the target rule. A vocabulary item is extracted from the rule component. The vocabulary item is aggregated with the intermediate state expression to form the target rule. The target rule is subsequently deployed to the target application.

The present invention allows for extending the functionality and data properties of a messaging board protocol, while maintaining support for legacy clients. A secure side channel is provided that allows functionalities and data properties not supported by a legacy protocol to be implemented. The unsecured legacy channel that uses a legacy protocol, however, is maintained. Legacy data can be sent over the legacy channel and subsequently linked up with the data properties sent over the secure side channel for extending the data properties. Because side channel is secure, a hashing and comparison of legacy data on the client and the server side allows for securing the unsecured legacy channel, thereby extending the functionality of the legacy protocol.

Distributed adaptive geopositioning includes an objective architecture for imagery geopositioning. The positioning is distributed to fulfill the need to perform accurate geopositioning whenever and wherever it is needed. The positioning is adaptive to implement the idea that geopositioning is a dynamic, not static, quality of geospatial intelligence, for which accuracy can be improved over time as more data is collected and ingested. Focus is placed on the need for improved geopositioning throughout all areas of geospatial intelligence exploitation, not just for specific products or tools. Legacy data is re-computed to align with the geopositioned imagery and also benefits from improved accuracy.

A method and apparatus for protocol-independent extension of data services through a broadband packet network packs legacy data streams associated with the data services into containers which are in turn encapsulated in protocol data units (PDUs) that are launched into the broadband packet network. The apparatus optimally supports idle suppression to efficiently utilize packet network resources. If idle indications are not provided by subtending sources, idle patterns may be detected by examining the serial data stream for repeating data patterns. The containers have headers dependent on the data stream type. Thus data is only transported across the packet network as required, further improving efficiency.

A policy-based resource management system provides an infrastructure that uses high-level definitions of data-types along with desired policy rules to manage legacy data. In particular, relevant legacy data is identified as well as the characteristics of storage devices where the legacy data resides. The storage management system determines what if any of the legacy data is stored in a manner that is non-compliant with the policy rules and corrects any violations. It generates corrective action plans, and then uses existing data migration software to migrate the data. Accordingly, the legacy data may be managed in a policy-based manner without requiring typical storage management software.

A computer system architecture and process transforms the organizing principles of business data management seen in traditional or common place settings across disparate data stores into an object-semantic model. The transformation is implemented in a transitory, managed risk implementation approach for data access migration. This approach will enable data agility and will move data storage closer to information storage, while supporting the rapid development of business capabilities. This approach will bridge the gaps between relational database / file based storage (less expressive) and object-semantic representation (more expressive). This process / method will connect information residing in legacy data structures such as relational database / file based storage on disk drives to instances populating an expressive object-semantic model in persistent grid based memory. It will also maintain a linkage between the original legacy data to the enhanced object-semantic data allowing for ongoing modernization and removing the need for point migrations.
